Getting in the 100's for under $65k?

ken warbly went 317 mph for around 10k granted that was a few years back, im sure it can be done, the eggbeater cats will do it, and you can tweak em to turn 10k rpms.

If Iwere looking for a boat like that it is the one I would snatch up in a hurry.

If ya want to put your life on the line every time ya run it ,,, Ok , buy the over powered cat!! If ya want to go fast cheap and still have room to go faster, buy the 30 foot superboat or a 30 foot phantom ,,, boat will get ya there and be very safe doing it !! Just a opinion

RHC, sscchhhhhhhh I have a 2000 30' Specrte w/300's here as well and mine is 69k.........I hear what you said about life on the line,but it appears he has the luxury of running on calm water when "he wants" a big difference from where we do/did most of our boating. On another note ,how the heck are you? I understand all was well at the Leopa run last weekend. Take care and stay in touch. Marc

Its not gonna happen, unless you find some really old/beat boat with a big engine, and thousands of dollars that you need to spend to repair it
As others have said, there are lots of Cats with twin 200-225's that will do it with ease. At least 3 or 4 in the Skater listing here on OSO.
